As part of documenting patient education, the tech should include the teaching topics, family members that were present, and the patient demonstrating proficiency. This ensures that documentation notes what the patient learned and if anyone else was present who also received education. By documenting the patient's ability to demonstrate proficiency of the material, the tech records the patient's outcomes for the teaching session.
